The total gross vehicle weight with trailer
must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR) shown on the vehicle
identification plate (see page 8-1). The
total gross vehicle weight is the com-
bined weight of the vehicle, driver, all
passengers and their luggage, cargo,
hitch, trailer nose weight and other op-
tional equipment.
5.
Always secure items in the trailer to prevent
load shift while driving.
6.
Check the condition and air pressure of all
tires on the trailer and your car. Low tire
pressure can seriously affect the handling.
Also check the spare tire.
7.
8.
The vehicle/trailer combination is more af-
fected by crosswind and buffeting.
o
The front or rear axle weight must not
exceed the Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR) shown on the vehicle identifica-
tion plate (see page 8-1). it is possible
that your towing package does not ex-
ceed the GVWR but exceeds the GAWR.
Improper trailer loading and/or too much
luggage in the boot can overload the rear
axle. Redistribute the load and check the
axle weight again.
HGK260
When being passed by a large vehicle, keep
a constant speed and steer straight ahead.
If there is too much wind buffeting, slow
down to get out of the other vehicle's air
turbulence.
When parking your car and trailer, especial-
ly on a hill, be sure to follow all the normal
precautions. Turn your front wheel into the
curb, set the parking brake firmly, and put
the transaxle in 1st or Reverse (manual) or
Park (automatic). In addition, place wheel
chocks at each of the trailer's tires.
